Awesome Mike :woohoo:
20 attendees so far :rock:

Please be aware.
we want everyone to enjoy themselves over the event weekend.
there is something there for all, the greens are hard greens to light blue
the Blues are Blue/black and have red options as well.
we just don't want to get anyone unwanted damage.
But still want you to have fun wheeling your rig.

Some of what we will do for the blue trails, are what we did with ENH. We didn't do any of harder trails at LMFT.


I'm thinking the hill climb we did at the end f the day with ENH and some of the other places I saw will give a bone stock Xterra grief. With your setup, you'll have no worries.


That LR3 made it...

That g-damn tree better not still be there. I'd hate to have to take my tire down again, plus my Firestik is up there now.

True... But the LR3 does have ride height control. A fully stock Xterra minus mudflaps/step thing will make it but a few scrapes/dings are possible.

You'll be glad to know - that tree is gone.

Stock rigs (Jeeps too) did get some scrapes on their undercarriage going through there. Depending on the line, much bigger things could happen. Even lifted and built -stay right on that 'lil rock in the middle... or you could get all wheels off the ground and be in need of getting pulled off... LOL
(I know my winch works at least!)

As Dave points out - line selection is important. What worked for the guy in front may not work for you. If at anytime you are unsure of a line/obstacles/capability of your rig. etc... stop & ask for help.

haha.. good way to test out the new winch. Once I install mine, I'll have to find a way to do the same.... after learning how to use it of course.

I still think I'd have made it if BOTH my LCAs had not landed on unseen mini boulders keeping my front tires off the ground and from pulling me over. Then again my rear diff was on the big boulder. Having a winch makes life easier in a time of need.

3 of us pre-ran the trails there today.

All I can say is, get ready for a full day of wheeling at some awesome trails. :rock:

we are planning trail runs to keep everyone interested and challenged all day.

You will definitely fill up your wheeling fix at this B2SR for sure. :woohoo:

Skids & sliders are strongly suggested if you have no lift & otherwise stock. There're off-camber & tight spots on the trails... so the guys with spare tiress/tents on the roof will get an extra dose of the pucker factor :mrgreen:

The scouting run this weekend was great, you guys will love these trails. The campground is nice & close by too.

Thanks for the details.

Guess I'll just have to pack more beers in the cabin to off set any weight on the roof.....

Attention Attendees:
we have assembled 3 trail groups for This Event
A Black Group (Hard/Extreme)
A Blue Group (Difficult/Hard)
A Green Group (Easy to Difficult)


We will make you aware of your particular group at the drivers meeting.
The selections were made on conditions of the trails, vehicle requirements, driver experience and risk of trail damage occurring on a particular trail.
We want everyone to be able to enjoy B2SR and the trails avail. to them.
Each group will have 6-8 Rigs a trail leader, spotters and tail gunner .

Please review B2SR trail rating link

Guys - remember that you need to book your own campsites at Sher-Roy. When you call remember to tell then that you are with Nexterra.
